I am a new to using Linux, I just downloaded the SDK 1.5 and I am having some trouble getting the tools to work properly. For example. If I try to open the emulator it will just sit there and do nothing. I cannot get adb to work either. I set it up / the instructions. Any ideas on what I am missing? Thanks
easiest way to fix the adb problem is to move your adb command that is included in the SDK into your /usr/bin or /bin directory. if you have a problem with either of those then type cd ~/<sdk>/tools followed by ./adb the "./" tells the phone to run the command in the current directory, otherwise you could just type the directory to adb to run it i.e. ~/SDK/tools/adb that's all you need. as far as the emulator i have no idea because i have never gotten it up and running properly
How do I add the ADB command to usr/bin?
You can do as followed:
- Run the Terminal
- cd to your sdk/tools directory
- Run these command:
Code:
#./adb kill-server
#./adb devices
If you see your HTC has been remounted, it's done!
sudo mv ~/sdk/tools/adb /usr/bin/adb

Got it thanks for your help! I still can't get the emulator to work. Oh well Thanks again
What version of Linux? Are you using 64 Bit? What is the result of typing
Code:
java -version
You created the AVD, right?
What do you get when you type:
Code:
android list avd

They made a change in 1.5 SDK that you must specifiy the virtual device you want the emulator to run. if you just double click on "emulator", it will print the error to console and exit.
So first cd to the tools directory of the sdk and type android[return]
you will be given the commands that android (the program) will accept. you can also do this for emulator.
Great!! Everything is working well now. Thanks for everyones help!!
How Do I get fastboot working in Ubuntu?

fastboot is included in the 1.5 sdk, once you get adb working it should start working as well.

Actually it doesn't seem to be in the Linux 1.5 SDK; I had to build it. It's in the Windows SDK, though. Kinda weird.
Android SDK 1.5 emulator trouble in windows
hi i m new to xda and to android i m not tech savy
i install sdk 1.5 i try ddms it works good what when i try to lanch emulator nothing happnes and i try by going in command promt im getting this error can any one help me out in this
C:\Documents and Settings\jass>emulator
emulator: ERROR: You did not provide the name of an Android Virtual Device
with the '-avd <name>' option. Read -help-avd for more information.
If you *really* want to *NOT* run an AVD, consider using '-data <file>'
to specify a data partition image file (I hope you know what you're doing).

First, this is the wrong thread for such a question. This thread is about SDK issues in Linux, and you're asking about using debugging tools in Windows.
Second, if you say yourself that you are "not tech savvy", then I'm not quite sure why you are wanting to play with the SDK tools. I don't mean this in a derogatory way; I'm just not sure what it is that you're trying to accomplish.
That said, Android dev docs can be found here, and information specifically about the emulator is here.

When I open up my terminal emulator it says:
export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH
and no commands work anymore
I then tried to use adb through cmd in windows and I can't get anything to work that way. Everything was working fine yesterday, but now I can't get any commands to work. Any ideas?

When you say, terminal emulator... you mean on your phone, right?
When you try running adb commands in windows -- what's the exact error message you're getting?

Hi i'm trying to write a aircrack bash script for terminal emulator but can't find the command for calling a new terminal window. Is there a command for calling a new window?
I´m runnig a Moto G5+ (potter) 7.0 stock rom, rooted with magisk 16.
Since a few days I recognize an error when opening a terminal emulator or using adb from a windows PC and just typing the command
Code:
getprop
from terminal emulator or
Code:
adb shell getprop
from PC the output is
Code:
stack corruption detected
.
I´m not new to android and know how to flash roms or kernels and stuff like this but I´m not so good in terminal commands. I googled for it but the answers I found were a bit above my level of knowledge. Can someone help me out a bit and explain what this message means exactly and how to debug and solve it?
I was able to run this command a few weeks ago without problems, also rooted with magisk. Could it be any third party app or a setting?
Any help much appreciated.
edit: attached a log when typing getprop into the terminal emulator.
get same error
